Tighe, princi pal of Kargo high school and presj don of the high c!-.oo athletic board of control, is seeking to repudiate an sgreement made to play the state championship contest between Fargo high and Bismarck' :.ere were made ly local officials today. When the board of control first or dered a game between Fargo and Bis viarcl it was agreed and announced that Fargo high would come here. Since the semi-finals, however, Mr. Tighe asserts that he made ho'agree tnent, demanded the game be played, in Bismarck and then suggested Grand Forks. It is out of the ques tion for the Bismarck team to go to Grand Forks because of the expense, rs the receipts of the game wouiu \vot be sufficient to cover the ex pense. The Bismarck officials said they would be willing to change the place had Tighe not already agreed to play bere and arrangements made to play the game, the local officials going to some expense to mqke these arrange ments. Work was started yesterday to get the Bismarck field ready for a con test on Friday afternoon. It is understood that Principal Tighe declared he was going before the state board, of which he is pres ident and usually controls. Supt. Love of Mandan, merriber of the board, supports Bismarck. Tighe recently "got in bad" with Grand Forks high school be announc ing for the state board that Grand Forks was out of the state cham pionship finals because of failure to ay dues. Since, the dues are but S3 the Grand Forks high school sup porters declare there was no excuse for such an action^and that the state board should have notified the liigh school of thi fact that dues were delinquent. The Bismarck team' got back from "Minot last night on the train. The boys went up in «u'-omobiles. On their return they drove as far as Max,, where they were forced to leave their cars because of the roads, and came in on the train.# Billy Evans Says Coach Howard Jones of Iowa must have figured a number of the young men on the Yale eleven wert of that opinion.j When the Iowa team came on thtf field at Yale' they were swathed In blanket's and -yore huge headgears. ... When it came time to star* prac tice they removed tnc' Sianketa, peeled off their huge sweaters md .walked around the field in a strange, serpentine formation, 'stretching their arms and legs and grunting lustily as they did so. Before Yale could realize it, Iowa had scored a touchdown and sewod no the game. rhe first impression counts in .iport and Iowa certainly gave Yale something to think about as the western team made its entrance. N When Chuck Palmer of Northwest ern ran 102 yards after recovering a fumbled in the game with Minnesota, the claim was advanced that he lyid tied a football record of long stand ing. It was an error. The football records credit McCaa of Lafayette- and Boynton of Wil liams with runs of 110 yards. McCaa made his run agaiust Swarthmore in 1909, while BoynAt performed his against Hamilton in 1920. Palmer's run enabled Northwest ern to get a 7 to 7 tie with Minne sota, the fir: big upset of tho year in western football. Centre versus Washington and Lee. That game is already attructing much attention in the south. The meeting of these two rcat teams will be staged at Louisville, Ky.. on Nov. 11. Centre, by its great showing against Harvard, is conceded to have another wonder team. After being scored on three times in the first period, largely because £he breaks favored the Crimson, Centre came back and outplayed Harvard the rest of the game. Washington pnd Lee showed its strength in the game with West Virginia by holding that team to a 12 to 12 tie. West Virginia had previously defeated Pittsburg, 9 to 6, the first time such a feat 'V.d been accomplished in 20 years by a West Virginia team. Tho longest drop kick of the sea son is to tlje credit of OHearn of! Yale, who scored in that manner] from the 52-yard line. As yet no player has run the length of the field FOUR STAR PLAYERS CENTRE COLLEGE END LEMON. One of the outstanding ^features of Centre's play against Harvard was the work of J2nd Lemon, when jt 'is considered it man his first big game. Under the coaching of Charles Moran Lemon is certain to be a# much im proved player next season. Harvard was unable to make much headway around l^is end. -4!

Sport Of All Sort Miller Huggips by again accept ing the management flf the New York Americans, proves that he is a glutton for punishment. Billy Mislce's comeback certainly was nothing over which Jack Demp sey could* enthuse. Looks like »n idle winter for the champion. Despite the walloping the Yankees received from the Giants, Ty Cobb insists the Yankees are the greatest team in either major league. Wonr der if Huggins believes it. Looks very much as if Catchier Schmidt of the Pittsburg Nationals had a press agent. It's quiet day when he doesn't break in.to print.

Rogers Hornsby, in expl^.ning how 1 he supplanted Babe Ruth as the home-run king, of the majors,' very modestly says: "Either the ball is livelier, the fences shorter or the pitcher poorer.
